The 10th Annual Tribal Leader/Scholar Forum will be held on June 30th, 2015, at NCAI’s Mid Year Convention. The theme is “Back to Our Futures: Re-searching for Justice”.

To honor the 10th anniversary of the Forum, we will explore how our communities can draw from our cultural wisdom and research to build a more just vision for our futures—a vision that modernizes the trust relationship, engages traditional ecological knowledge, advances restorative justice, and so forth.
The Forum will also feature a Poster Session highlighting student research.
